Using the Burst Setting

Burst allows you to take up to 4 still pictures as quickly as

possible. The camera then continues taking burst pictures at

a slower rate until you release the Shutter button or the

camera runs out of memory.
1. Press the Timer/Burst button until Burst

appears in

the Image Display.

2. Frame the subject in either the viewfinder or in Live View.

(See Using Live View on page 34.)

3. Press the Shutter button all the way down and hold it. The

camera takes 4 pictures as quickly as possible and

continues taking burst pictures until you release the

Shutter button or the camera runs out of memory.

The Image Display remains off during the burst capture. After

the burst pictures have been taken, each image appears one

at a time on the Image Display.
When Burst is selected, the Burst

icon will appear in the

Live View screen. The burst setting remains in effect until it is

changed again or until the camera is turned off. The camera

resets to the default Normal burst setting when you turn the

camera off.
NOTE: The burst setting is not available while recording

video clips. You also cannot record audio when using the

burst setting, but you can add an audio clip later (see

Record Audio on page 69). Also, the flash is not

available while using the burst setting.

TIP: To restore the timer/burst setting to what it was when

you last turned the camera off, hold down the

button

as you turn the camera back on.
